Notes

1st pic is as found

Banded dashed Banded.. Extremely uncommon...

He would not hold still for a minute and I regret not taking better pictures..

Habitat Private and unsecure.. Last remaining patches of habitat in area. This area less the 8 acres and about 2 acres of that was plowed this month. :(

Continued plowing for no reason endangers the Unique kings in this area..
